The Singularity of Anne’s Printmaking Work

posted July 21st, 2016 by Hyatt Moore

As Anne entered the Laguna Festival of Arts this summer, it occurred that we should have a brochure to support her. Basically, it’s a small “take away” for people to look through another time. Here’s how it came out.

Brochure-p-1-border

Here’s the cover. The emphasis on singularity is to address the misconception that her prints are multiples. Not so. Each of her pieces is one-of-a-kind. And, of course, so is she . . . (further adding to the meaning).

Brochure-p-5

The “in studio” photo, besides showing the artist, shows part of her press and, thus, something of the process.

The quote was used by permission, of course. There were others, but this one was so succinct. That isn’t Diane Uke’s house, however, rather one of the rooms at our place.

Brochure-p-3

Here’s a “screen shot” of a page from Anne’s website. To see any of these, larger and uncropped, go to www.annesprints.com.

Michele Corriel of Western Art and Architecture had so many insightful quotes it was hard to choose. And Anne’s book, Art Under Pressure, continues to enjoy exposure. (For more on that, and ordering info, go here.)

At-Booth

Here’s Anne at her booth, the day we hung the art . . . then still a little bare without the flowers and guestbook and whatnot on the table . . . and, of course, without the many guests who have come by since.

Happily it has been a good summer for sales as people discover the beauty and intrigue of Anne’s singular art form.

The show runs through the summer.

Coming Events

    Your work is just plain beautiful Anne. I’ve alway admired your mono prints for their grace and lack of un-nescessary clutter. I wish you the best of luck at the Festival this year. In my humble opinion, your work is always the best work there.

    Cheers.

    I always enjoy Anne’s perspective. I feel an “ancient” quality in her pieces–as if the type and scripts are telling a story from the past.

    Hyatt, thanks for highlighting Anne’s most excellent work. Looking forward to visiting her booth again this year. Also, looking forward to seeing our dear friend Pil Ho Lee at Art A Fair.

    What a fascinating overview of Anne’s wonderful work, Hyatt! My copy of Art Under Pressure has been read many times over in the piano studio. I like the idea of the monotypes conveying something beyond words . . . each print has the capacity to draw one’s thoughts into that “thin space” beyond consonants and syllables. A quiet, peaceful place perhaps, where we all need to be, more often.
